Creation of the kde-workspace team

[Alex Fiestas]

If you're subcribed to plasma-devel mailing list, you will probably know that 
I have been dumping emails about global changes into this list, the last one 
being the one with subject "Thoughts about statusbar". In that thread some 
people asked why these kind of issues were discussed in plasma-devel mailist 
instead of for example in kde-usability. Well the thing is that in my opinion 
there is no right place to talk about this kind of things since some times 
they are not only about usability, so when I have an idea or I think that we 
should discuss about something that invovles the "overall experienice" I send 
it to plasma-devel since it is the mailist where most dekstop involved parties 
hangout.
 
My proposal to solve this empty spot, is to create a working group focused in 
the overall experience within the desktop. This group should work much more 
like Plasma Active does, meaning a designer oriented development (correct me 
if I'm wrong).
 
With KDE morphed into a community of subcommunities we need to create the 
"Desktop" community so we can gather all people interested in the topic and 
work together to continue working in what we do best, offer a unified 
experience across all applications.

The definition of what this workspace team should do or care about is 
something I'd like to do in a separate thread or irc meeting.
 
As why I'm sending this email to plasma-devel/kwin/oxygen is because those are 
the main 3 teams working and spending thinking time in the desktop so it seems 
to me like a perfect starting point or organizing such thing.

So, do you think that we need such team/working group/subcommunity ? do you 
feel that there is an empty spot as I do ?
